[Verse 1]
C
There is a train that goes to nowhere,
C
Need no ticket for you to ride,
C
Put you in a car they call the sleeper
C
It's nice and warm inside
[Verse 2]
C
The days are never numbered,
C
Your nights don't matter now,
C
Your time is no longer counted,
C
This train has got you now
[Verse 3]
C
Once on board, you can't get off,
C
The pistons fates for you,
C
There'll be no friends with you now,
C
The ride is just for you
[Chorus]
C
Train that goes to nowhere,
C
You can't ride, You can't ride,
[Verse 3]
C
You can't sit down, you can't stand up,
C
No-one will ever show,
C
Things that used to be so real,
C
Have vanished from your soul
[Chorus]
C
Train that goes to nowhere,
C
You can't ride, you can't ride,
C
Train that goes to nowhere,
C
You can't ride, It's all the time
[Bridge]

[Verse 3]
C
The goal is never what it is,
C
The goal will never be,
C
The light stays dim a long time now,
C
It's hard for you to see
C
Talk about the pathway,
C
Way beyond your sight,
C
Another time another mind,
C
That is the way of life
[Outro]
C
Train that goes to nowhere,
C
You can't ride, you can't ride,
C
Wanna know, what it is?
C
Or what it's called me?
C
You ride this train to nowhere now
C
Only you can be
C
Train that goes to nowhere,
